Berberis thunbergii 'Lime Star'
'Lime Star' is a slow-growing, compact Japanese barberry with striking golden-lime foliage. After around six years, it typically reaches just 30cm in height and 40cm in spread, making it an ideal choice for small gardens, borders, or containers. In May, tiny yellow flowers appear among the bright foliage, adding seasonal charm and attracting pollinators. With its neat habit and vibrant colour, this easy-to-grow shrub is perfect for adding structure and year-round interest to sunny or partially shaded spots.
